The Princess of Wales.

In less than month the Princess of
Wales will complete her 42d year. Her
royal highness remains one of the young
est looking women of her age in England,
despite married life that has not been
all sugar plums and coffee. During the
last year or two, however, the princess
has, regretably enough, aged somewhat
as those VIII know her most intimately
and love her best have been forced to
admit. Time is tracing lines about her
kindly eyes, and her neck, that sure
chronicle of woman's age, has its dis
agreeable little tale to tell; but these little
things detract nothing from the magnetic
charm of her presence, and it is a satisfac-
ton to know that she makes as good a
portrait as eVer-a satisfaction, because
it is by means of her photographs that
the princess is principally known to the
common people.
The princess birthday will be cele-
krated by ball to the Sandringham
tenants, whose ladies are already scour-
ing the country for appropriate dress in
which to meet her royal highness. Necks
and shoulders and arms are being nightly
inspected before the mirror in their
owners anxiety to know whether they
will be. sufficiently presentable for barring
to the critical gaze of ROYALTY. A great
trade is being done By the Norfolk
chemists in skin washes and blood mix
lures. A revival in this branch of their
business occurs about this time annually,
we believe.-LOndOn Letter.

supreme Court-AprII Term.

RANCO HEARINGS-BEFORE JUDD, C. J.
M'cULLY PRESTON AND BIcKERToN, is
WEDNESDAY. April 9th.
The Court opened at 10 a. IN.
Chief Justice Judd said there was
eighteen cases to be heard in banco. He
did not want to make new rules, but he
hoped the attorneys would try to bring
their arguments within one hour.
Mr.. Dole-Does Your Honor refer to
the case or the argument of each coun-
sci?
Chief Justice Judd-It refers to each
counsel
Mr.. Dole thought that was liberal
enough, while Col. Thompson looked as
if he would hardly be satisfied with one
hour.
CONTEMPT OF COURT CASE.
Chief Justice Judd said this was the
day set for the hearing of the case of l..
Aholo VS.. r. j. Creighton, contempt of
Court.
Mr.. F. NJ Hatch, who appeared for
the defendant, moved that the answer
be returnable before one OF the Justices;
then in case 1t was appealed it would
come before the full Court. 1t would
also give the parties more time for de-
liberation He did not deny that the
full Court had power to commit for con-
tempt.
Chief Justice Judd-The case was set
for to-day so as to secure hearing at
this term, as there are only few days
left. 1t would take its place on the cal
endar with the other banco cases.
Mr. Hatch withdrew his motion, and
the case will probably come up to-day.

what to do with Criminals.


But what should we do with the thugs,
sluggers, aSsassinS-men who revel in
blood and wounds and death?
This:
Let the United States government, in
conjunction with the state governments,
buy an island in the Pacific ocean, guard
it with gunboats, and thereto send the
great host of murderous scoundrels who
Lave been condemned to the scaffold, who
have been sentenced for life to the peni-
Tertiary for bloodshed, who Turk and lie
in wait in our cess pools and slime pits,
with revolver and dagger; all who are
known to the police as dangerous char
acters.
Let all rape devils be sent there, and
all who spit upon and trample the eternal
laws of God and man under foot.
"They will kill each other" you may
protest.
Let them KILL
You, nor I, nor any of US will be re-
sponsibIe for that. Our government will
not be responsible for our blood.
The better element that is in all men
will assert itself in the felon community,
and in time they will attain state of
civilization equal to their own.
In mercy, let us do this, remembering
that the environments and ancestry of
ours, and their respectability is many de-
grees less than our Own.-Wil1 Hubbard

Dante.

1t was felieitous choice made by Mrs.
Williams, when she named the great
Florentine poet as the subject of her
second lecture, to be given on Friday
evening of this week, at the residence of
Mrs. Dickson. Dante, unlike other
great poets, still lives. Browning, in
comparing Milton and Dante, says !:
''But Millions voice is grown faint to us /;
we have passed into other modes of ex-
preston and thought. But if we had to
select two names in literature who are
still exercising their full influence on
mankind, and whose teaching is still de-
veloping new sides to the coming gener-
ations, we should choose the names of
Dante and Goethe" The many-sided
character of Dante, his vast learning,
his checkered career as soldier, politi-
clan, poet and exile, all tend to make
him a subject alike unique and of never
falling interest.
Under the skilful and mastery hand
ling which Mrs. Williams will give to
the rich materials which this great
Italian furnishes, our cultivated and
literary people may look forward to a
rare treat in this lecture. ''The Man,
Dante" whom the Florentines loved,
hated, exiled, and when he was dead
almost worshipped, will be most faith
fully and truthfully depicted in the
graphic language of which Mrs. Will
Jams has such command.

u. s. GRAND as a Farmer.

When Capt Grant returned from
Oregon, where he had resigned his COM
mission, his father-in-law presented his
wife with sixty acres of land and three
negroes-two men and woman. Capt.
Grant went to work in good earnest, and
with his two negro men dug cellar,
hauled the stones for the walls, stoned it
up cut and hauled the logs with which
the house was built and then split the
shingles with which it was rooted. At
the raising his neighbors turned out to
help him, and in due time he was the oc-
cupant of his own house.
His first occupation was to clear a field,
and he was certainly an adept at chopping
wood AS the winter came on he hauled
this wood into ST. Louis, and had, of
course, a good team, bay and gray,
which he boosted could draw heavier
load than any other horses in the settle
ment At first his neighbors thought 1t
was only a boast, but after going along
the road with him with lighter loads they
found that he was an authority on horses.
He never would ride, though, on his load,
saying that ''the team has enough to draw
without carrying lazy driver"
His first crops were corn, wheat, potatoes
and few garden vegetables. He raised
300 bushels of potatoes to the acre, and it
was his boast that with his team he
hauled seventy bushels Of wheat which
he had raised to ST. Louis in one load.
Wearing pair of old blue army trOwsers,
tucked into high, heavy boots, a flannel
shirt, an old undress blue sack coat with
the military buttons replaced by plain
ones, and SLOUGH hat which turned up
before and down behind, he did not much
resemble gentleman farmer" The
guests at the Planters house used to
stare little when he was invited in to
dinner with old comrades, toward whom
his heart warmed always.
On one occasion an officer who had
served with him, visiting st. Louis, drove
out to see him and found him in his
wheat field in his shirt sleeves leading
three other men who, like himself, were
swinging cradles. But the land was poor
and the crops did not prove remunerative.
To aid him in supporting his family he
undertook the collection of accounts for
some of his neighbors who had sold their
vegetables on credit to different parties in
the city, but he was not successful in dun
ning.-Ben: Perley Poore.

WEDNESDAY, April 9th.
John Mclaughlin, John Backman,
Pokini, Kapuakea, Kane and Kahau
had each to pay IS for drunkenness.
Kapuakea admitted to the Court that he
got drunk on swipes. This will probably
lead to an investigation as to where he
got the drink.
Kelemeneka, prisoner in Oahu Jail,
was charged with the larceny of taro

Keeper of the Insane Asylum. He was
found guilty in the fourth degree and

THE WELCOME RAIN.

The rain storm has been general over
Oahu, and has done incalculable good.
The grass and fodder plants have been
started, and the russell brown of the
pasture lands has given place to YER
dure. There is every prospect of the
storm continuing for some time, but
even with the present fall of rain there
should be enough feed to carry live
stock through the summer at least on
this island. It is to be hoped that the
other Islands have been similarly
favored. The drouth OF last season was

No. GO. the Staver.

"The oldest locomotive now in use any
where near Chicago" remarked rail
reader, sis No. go on the Illinois Central,
still making regular trips down the road.
She has been in use thirty-three years.
1t is estimated that in that time she has
travelled 1,650,000 miles, or equal to
sixty-six times around the globe. She
has hauled passenger trains, freight
trains, special trains, pay cars, gravel
trains and done switching. She has been
in several accidents, but was never badly
damaged. She has killed her man. half
a dozen times. The average life of a
locomotive is ten or twelve years, and so
you can see that old No. so is a slayer. I"

WAITING.

They have gone through life together,
They have braved its stormy weather,
Many year.
Time has filched from beauty'S treasures
But Love scorns the hoard he measures
With a leer.
Mid the worlds turmoil and fretting,
They'd no tears and vain regretting
For the past;
AL their troubles firmly breasting,
They have found the time for resting,
Sweet at last.
There are graves upon The meadow
Baby forms that lie in shadow,
Dark and still:
All. they felt life's fountain drying,
When they looked on baby, dying,
But-''Thy will!''
Now, with pulses throbbing steady.
Hand in hand theyre waiting, ready,
Not sigh
For time that's swiftly feeting,
There will be a joyous meeting
By and bye.

AS already said there are credits to be
given the new Loan account for pay
ments of National Debt and interest be-
tween October 10, 1886 and April 1 , 1887,
but without reference to the Treasury
books the amount cannot be ascertained.
In like manner reductions must be
made from the above expenditures on
account of roads and bridges, inn
migration, water works, ETC., being
the sums paid under these several heads
of expenditure between March
31st and October 10, 1886. The
amount received from the new Loan up to
March 81, 1887, was $453, 300. 1t follows
from this presentation that the condition
of national finance is not so bad as the
"Gazette" makes it. However, to I'M
derstand the exact position of the Ha-
waiian Treasury it would be necessary
to have statement of all lawful claims
against the Government on the 31st
March, 1887. In the earlier history of
Hawaiian finance such a statement
formed part of the annual Treasury ex-
hibit.

THE TREASURY STATEMENT.

The Gazette was in error when it
said that the Treasury statement shows
that fthe financial position of the coun-
try has become over 100000 worse, or
in other words that Hawaii has spent 80
per cent more than her income in the
space of twelve calendar months"
Things are not so bad as that although
they are quite bad enough. Our con-
temporary's mistake arose from writing
off the Loan and Savings Bank items
from receipts and not crediting the
Treasury with payments on loan &C
count.
It is difficult to arrive at an exact
figure, because it is a question of ac-
counting as to how much of the national
debt and interest falling due and paid
within the past fiscal year should be
charged to the Loan of 1885, The Loan
Act was approved October 10, 1886, and
it is reasonable to suppose that only pay
ments subsequent to that date can be
charged to the new Loan account. Liza
bilities accruing under previous Loan
Acts should be met out of the ordinary
resources of the Treasury until the new
loan became operative. If it had wholly
miscarried those liabilities must have
been provided for. Therefore, what
ever payments on account of national
debt were made between October Is,
1886, and April 1, 1887, are charges
against the refunding division of the two
million loan; payments under this head
made prior to October Is, 1886, are
charges against revenue.
Let us endeayor to ascertain from the
Treasury statement as near as may be
what payments have been made
at least partly on Loan account,
eliminating disbursements for Ma
tional Debt falling due and interest,
aggregating $500, 231 80. The loan receipts
from various sources were:
